Chancellor appoints members of A.D. Search Advisory Committee

University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa Chancellor Tom Apple has formed a Search Advisory Committee to select a new Athletics Director. Howard Karr, former chair of the UH Board of Regents, will co-chair the committee with Norm Chow, UH football head coach.

Said Chancellor Apple, “We thank this stellar group of leaders for volunteering their time to find the right person to become Athletics Director, as we embark on a new level of competition in football as part of the Mountain West, and all other sports as part of the Big West.”

The committee will decide whether to employ a search firm.

While the search is under way, University of Hawaii Vice President Rockne Freitas will continue in his role as acting Athletics Director.
